Had to deal with a N/A/Z/I on overwatch and it was so annoying to deal with them because they were upset about things but were using scapegoating their problems on a race or nationality or ethnicity. #Overwatch #ToxicGaming

An idea for a script I had just now was my interest in overwatch falling off but the problem is if I wanted to do it, I'd need to play it to show it. And not only that, I'd have to play it. And I would want to see how it's changed after a few years.

Today I was duoing with some rando on Overwatch who had good synergy with me, and I told him that I was an emergency management worker, and he said, "Oh, great, you go look at the problem and say, 'yep, there sure is an emergency here!'" ...is that what civilians think we do??

@Starrod61 It is. Loved the game but had to quit. Was around the same time I was having some very serious personal trouble so the least I was thinking about was Overwatch. 😥

@PlayOverwatch Have u ever just HATED, LITERALLY HATED a game so much because of the constant, ridiculous arcade modes used? Because of the broken matching system?! That is the current Overwatch game! In addition 2 the idiot players who use qp as an excuse 4 their **** playing!

I heard that Overwatch 2 is about to be released in stores in spring 2022, if that game comes out I hope they'll fix some stuff on some heroes plus with over 100k credits on the first game I doubt I'll get every skin before the event closes & several achievements I've gotten.

@bertini_victor @stories_nice @PaulTassi They did release good games like crash and Spyro though, overwatch was great, until it was killed. But MS will definitely have to reorganize the company. But, if I were a Xbox fan, I would be a bit disappointed considering all the companies they could have bought with that money

@fcastillo_es Maybe. I’m playing overwatch on a single monitor and I’m not noticing the problem 👀

@Kephrii Overwatch's greatest problem are these tank/sup roles that require way less skill and entitle people to believe mediocre performance is acceptable in ranked, just because they are not held accountable for elims, which is what actually what the game is all about.

@Eleven5Five @mohammedalazme1 @TectEGG I don’t really see the hardware as being an issue at this point if the switch can run the Witcher & Doom there shouldn’t be a hardware issue , & speaking of an Xbox port I don’t see the gacha being an issue when Overwatch & older COD games have loot boxes which are gacha

Overwatch was peak when Junkrat was absurdly broken. After the Mercy Rework of September 2017 the whole game went downhill😔

@Neoxon619 @JeffGrubb That makes sense, but ActiBlizz actually was a big supporter of the console. All Crash Games, Spyro, Tony Hawk, Overwatch, Diablo, and they could bring even more such as CoD

@memeachino @FireTheGull The devs (women) of the overwatch team have already said that these issues haven't been within their team. However, they did have to deal with being given multiple useless projects by the higher ups (ie; ******** kotick), setting actual progress behind.

Had to uninstall overwatch because my anger issues were absolutly destroying me So hard to love a game when it's in such a horrible state, even harder when the game queue spits in your face and pits you against ppl way above your level. Shame...

Now that Microsoft has acquired Activision, perhaps they can fix those terrible wait times in Overwatch.

@BlizzardCS Battlenet store NA down? Entering game for Overwatch extremely slow. Checking other players profiles extremely slow. Client request disconnect issue super frequent & never was/extremely rare before. Voice chat still peaks/overdrives for some players. Fix's soon? :(

@Kephrii In comp it’s cool to ask for those things, but if I’m queuing into a quick play match to just chill and vibe and I start getting yelled at to change in a QP match? Then there is a problem there. Overwatch isn’t just about winning, and some people really don’t get that.

@no_funeral They have the opposite problem of Overwatch. They keep putting out small updates and tweaks. But what they need is to pause those and then put out a major expansion/sequel where they can reset some of the systems. And, like, build an onramp for new and returning players.

How to fix the toxicity of comp for overwatch 2? Simple. 2 things. One. To stop the stress of a loss. Remove the ability to stop loosing sr after a certain point. Will also help smurfing. Second. No solo comp queues. Can only queue with a full team. Done.
